Band Bench Press

Lie on a flat bench with a resistance band wrapped around your upper back and hold one end of the band in each hand. Plant your feet firmly on the floor and position your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width with elbows bent. Press the band upward by extending your arms while squeezing your chest at the top. Slowly lower your hands back down toward your chest with control, maintaining tension in the band throughout the movement. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
